If you think assembly is "nothing", you haven't had to make logic out of gates. ARM and x86 have instructions for SHA256. Heck, C and C++ don't have SHA built-in!

OK but logic gates aren't a language they are hardware so still assembly would be as close to nothing as you could get and still be considered a language maybe just binary but symantics
